closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-06) Drawing Control Program. An audit of con-
trolled drawings was conducted and discrepancies found were corrected by
the licensee.
This area was reinspected by a review of methods used to
audit the drawing control program implementation. After discussing the
audit with licensee personnel and reviewing objective evidence that the
audit had taken place, the inspector verified corrective action by in-
. . -
specting forty (40) different sets of drawings in three separate locations.
Based on the inspector's review of this area, this item is closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-07) Vendor Instruction Manual Control. The in-
spector reviewed a licensee commitment letter dated September 26, 1979,
which indicated that a cover sheet accompanying manual changes was to be
placed in' the front of each manufacturer's instruction manual. The cover
sheet was to contain the following information; instruction manual number

that it is the latest issue. A licensee review of vendor manuals to insure
placement of revision pages was in progress, to be completed prior to
1/1/80, as determined by observation of objective evidence. Based on the
inspectors review of the above, this item is closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-08) Maintenance Scheduling. The inspector veri-
,
fied that the licensee has implemented a Computer Program to schedule
maintenance. The computer program contained such information for safety-
related structures, systems and ccmponents as name of component, designa-
tion, frequency and type of maintenance. This item is closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-09) Preventive Maintenance. The inspector veri-
fied that, Station Directive 3.2-1, Revision 3, dated 7/79, Identification,
Scheduling and Performance of Plant Testing contained the requirement that
testing following maintenance insured that functional capability of com-
ponents is not impaired following maintenance and that all safety-related
components will receive a functional verification prior to returning the
component to service. This item is closed.
(0 pen) Items (369/78-39-10), (369/78-39-11) and (360/78-39-12), Design
Change Requirements. The inspector, in discussion with the licensee,
determined that the Administration Policy Manual for Nuclear Station
(ADM/NS) Section 3.3 was under revision to meet the requirements of ANSI
N45.2.11 - 1974Property "ANSI code" (as page type) with input value "ANSI</br></br>N45.2.11 - 1974" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process. and had not been approved. Until such time as Section 3.3

indicated by review of objective evidence such as stickers in storage
locations.
The inspector then randomly selected shelf items to determine
if their location was accurately reflected on the computer listing; he then
randomly selected listed items to verify their correct shelf locations.
This later technique revealed a pattern of discrepancies concerning items
which had recently been moved. The licensee then conducted a review of
over 1500 items recently moved and discovered 50 errors representing a
error rate. An analytical breakdown revealed that at least 1.5% of tLe %
error rate could be achieved by greater attention to filling out input
forms correctly. This retraining was satisfactorily conducted and dis-
covered errors corrected. Based on the preceeding licensee actions in this
area, this item is closed.
- (Closed) Item (369/78-39-21), Periodic Inspection of Handling Equipment.
The inspector reviewed Station Directive 3.3.3, Control of Slings and
Lifting Devices, approved 6/76, which requires an inspection of slings each
day a sling is used.
If a sling is used more than one shift per day or
subject to other severe service requirements it shall be inspected prior to
its use.
The results of the inspection are documented on a Plant Work
Order. This item is closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-22), Rodent /Small Animal / Ire.act Control. The
inspector reviewed an approved Requisition, dated 9/75, for a contractor to
provide Rodent and Pest Control for Mcbaire Station effective November 1979.
This item is closed.
(Closed) Items (369/78-39-23) and 369/78-39-24), Record Storage at Company
Office, Record Storage at McGuire Stttion. The inspector found that at the
Company Offices, the Quality records were either in storage at the vault or
had been transferred to McGuire Station Master Files. The record storage
facilities were reinspected and in discussion with the licensee, it was
determined that the licensee has opted to follow NFPA 232-1975 as allowed
by the committed QA Program (Regulatory Guide 1.88). Chapter 5, Section
5242.b of NFPA-232, allows the degree of protection for Class 1 records by
housing them in a standard fire resistive vault or in safes, or record
protection equipment having a fire rating comparable with the maximum fire
hazard to which they may be exposed. The inspector determined that the
Master Files at McGuire did not have installed fire-door dampers where the
ventilation ducts penetrate the facility, but did provide the provision of
a complete shutdown of all air handling equipment in the building in event
of a fire detection / protection system alarm. The inspector informed the
'
licensee the NRC may reinspect the record storage facility if further
guidance was received. These items are closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-25) Failure to Establish Master Calibration
Schedule. The inspector verified that the licensee had established a
master surveillance schedule for the test and measurement equipment. The
inspector interviewed a health physicist and determined the schedule was

complete and up to date for the amount of equipment in use. hheremaining
equipment was scheduled for calibration for the first quarter of 1980.
This item is closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-26), Standards and Testing Facility Recordkeeping.
The inspector reviewed Sections 7.1.6, 7.1.7, and 7.1.8, of the Standard
and Testing Facility Manual, Revision 8, dated 6/79, and verified during
the inspection that the licensee's commitment to the Duke Topical QA Program
,
in the recordkeeping area were implemented as described in the above men-
tioned Manual. This item is closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-27) Standards and Testing Facility - Out of
Calibration Controls. The inspector reviewed Section 13.5.2 of the
Standard and Testing Facility Manual Revision 7, dated 12/78, and
determined that adequate controls are in place to assure that out of
calibration and/past due for calibration instruments are not used for
safety-related work. This item is closed.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-27) Standards and Testing Facility - Trend
Analysis. The inspector reviewed Sections 15.5.1, 15.5.2 and 15.5.3
Revision 7, dated 12/78, and determined by the review and a discussion that
adequate Trend Analysis is being performed at the facility. This item is
closed.
(Open) Item (369/78-39-29), McGuire Station Trend Analysis. The inspector,
in discussion with the licensee, determined that McGuire Station had not
yet implemented a system by which trend analysis of safety-related equip-
ment failures could be performed.
The Administration Policy Manual for Nuclear Stations additionally does not
sufficiently describe the trend analysis requirement. The above informa-
tion was discussed with the licensee and the inspector was informed that
the Admiristration Policy Manual would be revised to describe the requirement.
Until the licensee has established a program to implement trend analysis
of safety-related equipment failures, this item remains open.
(Closed) Item (369/78-39-30) Housekeeping. The inspector reviewed OCD-1,
Housekeeping During the Operations Phase of Nuclear Stations, Revision 4,
dated 4/79, which requires inspections to be performed on a scheduled basis
to assure the adequacy of cleanness and housekeeping practices in work
